'Ultimately, Fionan MacCartha's poetry reflects the world view of a section of the Irish expatriate community in Australia whose rich oral and geographical background continues to resonate in their adopted home. His use of the Irish language, Irish themes and imagery in his poetry in Australia served to foster a continuation with both his literary and social past and to mitigate the effects of being out-of-country'.
